    I'll ride that route either way this weekend so just let me know if you want to ride and best time. Early in the morning would be the best for me.

    What type of bike will you be pedaling...SS, geared, squishy... I'll follow your lead on bike type.

    I rode it SS and it is not bad exempt a few spots but due to the possible length and climb(I am out of shape) I will be riding my Geared squishy bike.

    Btw is is saturday or Sunday better for everyone?

    Whoa, just saw this thread. I am in Calabasas and will ride with y'all. Duke, I'd be interested in any new dirt you are showing off. Do you still have my cell #?

    I've been riding the Santa Monica Mountains a lot from Topanga or Reseda. Fun stuff and a great way to put down a lot of miles and do a lot of climbing to stay in shape. Looking forward to riding with VC folks.

    I'd like to make the Thursday night rides, but both my kids just started soccer with practice on Thurs night, plus games on Saturday. I'm open to other nights for riding.
    And if anybody is up for a ride tomorrow, I plan to ride Wildwood on Sunday morning, pace will be casual, as I just spent all week with the the flu. Would still like to hit some of the western plateau and ride the new trail again. Thinking 8am start time at the entrance off Avenida Los Arboles.

    Sorry can't make my own ride this week. As I was too excited to get my new fork installed I pinched my finger tip between the rotor and brake adapter, I'll save you the details and just tell it hurt like biatch.

    If I feel better and find a way to stabilize the finger/nail I'll post a ride this weekend.

    Hey guys

    Finger feeling better and it's not as bad as I originally thought. So let's hit space mountain Thursday night! If there is another trail everyone wants to do then just let me know.

    See you(hopefully) Thursday night at 6:00pm.
